Dog Fur Not Groing Back
12 Answers
Sam the labrador had an operation on his back late Oct 09 to remove a non malignant lump. Even though the lump was not very big, the vet had to shave Sams fur off an area of about 16 inches by 14 inches, nearly all of his back in other words. I got him a coat for winter but he only wore it when I took him out as he didnt like it and kept taking it off. Now nearly 3 months later there is very little sign of his fur growing back, he still looks like a shawn sheep. Does anyone know how long it will be before Sam will be back to his glorious best? He has always had a very thick coat as the rest of him shows.

It is now March and still hardly any fur on Sam even after Yumega treatment. The vet said yesterday she has never seen anything like it before and it should have grown back after 6 weeks. She thinks it may be hormonal and has suggested a blood test which I am going to book. She didn't sound very confident in her tone that this would give her a correct diagnosis. There has never been any problem before this op. He used to just moult and then regrow as normal. I just wondered if anyone else out there had ever had a dog with a similar problem?
